TABLET PC SETTINGS

used to control the cursor on main display. So it is proposed to set the touch LCD as
the main display. In Windows 10, there is Tablet PC Settings allow you to set
touchscreen to control other displays instead of main display. Here we use Waveshare
7inch HDMI LCD (C) as example to show you how to do this setting.

you didn’t connect touchscreen first, this tool couldn’t be searched.
